Jockey Comments – Group 3 Bayleys Great Northern Challenge Stakes

1st – Meaningful Star – Michael McNab – A bit slow away but followed the favorite and proved too good.

2nd – Aegon – Vinnie Colgan – He went great. Thought I had it won but just beaten by good horse.

3rd Sumi – Massa Hashizume – Did everything well today and went huge.

4th – Midnight Blue – Craig Grylls – Great run. Thought I kicked away at the top of the straight. Needs further again.

5th – Skyman – Warren Kennedy – Got a good trip around but swamped. No excuse.

6th – Islington Lass – Joe Doyle – She’s gone massive. She just needs more ground now.

7th – Heart Of Gold – Sam Spratt – Didn’t finish it off like the synthetic.

8th – Saint Bathans – George Rooke – Drawn wide today so we decided to go forward but didn’t work out.

Last – Not Ideal – Billy Jacobson – Travelled well but didn’t give a kick in the straight.
